What’s your favourite Ashley Beedle remix? Around the time I nearly posted his amazing remix of The Aloof’s One Night Stand in the favourite falsetto chat earlier three things dawned on me: 1- I realised it’s probably not falsetto 2 - that the singer Ricky Brown is the same singer who made an album with Luke Slater that wasn’t very graciously received, least of all by me an my gurning techno fiend friends in the early 00s and that I should maybe revisit it despite the bad reviews and 3- Ashley Beedle is brilliant but I’ve definitely missed some of his better work and this might be the place to hear it.

Always good to celebrate the work of Mr Beedle. I always refer to him as a ‘one man orchestra’. Here are my two favourite remixes of his… [![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/djhistory/original/2X/a/a50d10748a0a2650e4b6917a77612cbfeb7d5f07.jpeg "NATIVE NEW YORKER (ASHLEY BEEDLE'S BIG APPLE UPTOWN STORY 1&2)") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CytKxu6qGb8) [![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/djhistory/original/2X/1/12cd9bb7a4c715a7ae415c406e1589d7846378b6.jpeg "We're Free (feat.

Even as a kid in deep rural Wisconsin USA I’ve been a huge Beedle fan since the mid 90s. I dare say I dig what he’s done in the last decade as much or more than anything but I gotta go with a stone cold drop dead classic.

Yep, that Bent one is a cracker. Always had a soft spot for this one, particularly as it really seemed to piss off the purists at the time: [![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/djhistory/original/2X/3/32f7684ee97a8e1388404d8e4d793bf85bc8d973.jpeg "Strings of Life (Ashley Beedle Remix)") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9XJdjiF1Zgw) ---

Massive, gushy, Ashley beedle fan boy here. He’s been a constant companion in my record collection from my earliest days in dance music. Technically not remixes, but I’m posting them cos I’m not waiting for the next Ashley Beedle homage post to come up! Both these records were early dollar (AUD) bin finds in Melbourne and have not dated in my view. Can still be picked up for very little!
